B-Stock urges retailers to utilise technology to improve the cost of soaring returns

February 13, 2019

B-Stock is urging retailers and distribution centres to utilise technology and data to improve the reverse supply chain process.

With CBRE reporting that 30% of online purchases were sent back last year with ecommerce returns expected to rise 15% year-on-year, the sheer volume of returns can be overwhelming for the channel. However, B-Stock – an auction platform for returned, excess and other liquidation inventory – says this logistical challenge can be improved and even solved.
